Replying to: lemonowner08 (Dec 14, 2008 11:13 am) I can tell you that this is no electrical problem. See, when you hit the doorlock button, probably b y accident (my wife does that all the time while stepping out), the chime will rign 3 times to let you know. This is a delayed lock feature. It will also honk the horn when your doors lock. Simmilar to you pressing the lock button on the remote twice in a row.   I have had my accadia for months now, I keep learning stuff all the time. One thing I can add, the transmission does like to change from 6 gear to five especially when you have it on cruse control. I have learn to bring it down to the 5ft gear if I drive in a hilled area.   But what a quiet and roomy ride this has. I used to love my Surburban for the ride and room,,, this acadia blows the ride away. Especialy in the wind.

Replying to: teri2 (May 08, 2007 10:14 pm) I have a 2002 Surburban 4wd, and a 2008 Acadia 2WD, I used to prefer driving my Surburban over the Uplander I used to have. I can tell you this, the Acadia blows the Surburban away as far as Ride, Quietness, and GAs Millage.   Drive in a 40miles per hour cross wind in your surburban , then drive the Acadia (No comparisson) it's an awsome unit.   The power is great also. After driving my Acadia, the gong back to the Surburban, it seems the Surburban is sluggish... I mean, this Acadia has lots of power.   If it could pull my 30foot travel trailor I would trade my Surburban for an AWD Acadia no questions asked.   Chow Replies to this message: chaos42 (Jan 24, 2009 3:15 am) bobfish (Jan 25, 2009 12:15 pm) chaos42 (Jan 26, 2009 4:23 pm) and 2 more...

Replying to: chaos42 (Jan 26, 2009 4:23 pm) We're getting a little off topic here. Whether to buy is not the issue. Problems and repairs are the issues both of which presume the car has already been purchased. Let's move on.   tidester, host SUVs and Smart Shopper

Replying to: chaos42 (Jan 26, 2009 4:23 pm) Unfortunately, chaos42 is right. My 08 Acadia, while serving my family well, is.....irritating. Dealer still can't fix my thermometer, when it's cold outside and you remote start the vehicle, the thermometer reads a much higher temp than outside, which causes the AC to kick on, which means you get into a nice cold car. Dealer still can't fix the creaking noise coming from my dashboard at all times. And, whenever I take my family vehicle, which is responsible for transporting my wife and two kids, into the dealer for warranty work I have to scream in order to get a loaner so my family isn't stranded. I give up. This was my first GM car and very likely my last. Couldn't be happier I leased since GM now has four (!) cars that are essentially identical...can you say "no resale value?"   I sympathize with chaos42. These cars aren't cheap - mine stickered at $42K. Too bad for GM, the G8 is a great car for a great price but the thought of putting up with GM service totally turned me off. You'd expect for $42K to not only receive exceptional quality but also exceptional service, but at least for me that's not the case.

I`ve owned my 2007 Acadia for almost two years now only having the upgrade for the transmission shift points. In the time I have owned this crossover I have had O problems. Love the way it handles,rides and looks.I wish the gas mileage was better but for its size I don`t think it is that bad.My sister has a 2006 Honda Pilot it looks like a box on wheels rides like a lumber wagon and gets only 2 to 3 mpg over my Acadia.
